If my race is fated to perish, then let me carry it forward into hope for the future. It had always waited for this day—because it knew this meant the long night would end, and they would reach the other shore. The moment the Angel Spring Stone’s radiance fully dissipated, the golden coronet above Chu… Continue reading Cub 145: Did You Think You Were Only Suppressed by Me? Trash.

Even after regaining their memories, understanding at last, their fate in the next moment was already set—after finding their home, there was no way to return. Like a starship with a broken system, after receiving the last transmission from home, it could never come back. The unique psionic embodiments forged by the psychic coronets, surviving… Continue reading Cub 144: If You Have No Body, The Soul Can Still Be A Blade

In Desmond’s suddenly widened eyes, golden and black spiraling flames flashed past, soaring toward the eyeball in midair. What? The force tangled around and entwining them was rapidly dispelled. Everyone instinctively turned toward Chu Zao. In that moment of raging rain and golden snow, they froze in astonishment. That little one—what did he say? Great...grandfather?… Continue reading Cub 143: If You Have No Body, The Soul Can Still Be A Blade

The Dragon Realm grew even darker under the torrential rain. The entire sky looked like a monstrous beast, baring its fangs and opening its maw to devour everything around. Chu Zao walked the perimeter with Chao Huangmu. He held a mechanical umbrella in his hand. Psionic power could block the rain. But in such a… Continue reading Cub 142: Don’t Bully Zao Zao’s Great-Grandfather!

The little black dragon with pitch-black scales stretched its wings with effort. The rain was getting heavier. Its black eyes, flickering with golden light, stared intently at Chu Zao. The headache seemed to ease a little; though it still hurt, of course, if it weren’t for the headache, Chao Huangmu didn’t think this group could… Continue reading Cub 141: The Place You’ve Always Searched For Might Have Always Been Waiting For You

Right as Chao Huangmu landed. The sunny puppy made one trip here and turned straight into a gloomy dog. Those doggy eyes, once always bright and smiling, were now shadowed—honestly, there’s a reason why going “dark mode” makes you look cooler. At first glance, he now seemed more like one of those fierce, reliable big… Continue reading Cub 140: What on Earth Has Happened to Brother Huangmu???

Desmond stopped smiling, too. He sat up a bit straighter, the usual lazy and defiant air fading away, replaced by a steadiness born of long years. He gazed at the little one before him, then lowered his eyelids, collected his emotions, and stood. Chu Zao didn’t quite understand what Desmond was thinking about. He was… Continue reading Cub 139: If They Won’t Hug You, Let Me Do It

“Brother Huangmu?” Chu Zao looked at Chao Huangmu standing on the mountaintop over there and spoke subconsciously. Chao Huangmu stood at the highest point, looking straight over like that. He heard Chu Zao’s voice. He was stunned for a moment. Who… is that? Chao Huangmu’s face showed no emotion, but his head felt as if… Continue reading Cub 138: Zao Zao Can Get Angry Too

On Desmond’s side. After resting half a day and confirming his power was no longer on the verge of another violent outburst, Desmond and the others prepared to clear out the monsters near the camp. “You’re bringing that little one with us?” Dan was organizing for the upcoming operation when he heard Desmond’s words, his… Continue reading Cub 137: Meeting and Locking Eyes

Desmond’s eyes, previously fierce from pain, were momentarily dazed. Little Chu Zao, who had squeezed in to see what was happening, was also stunned. There was no light in the room, only a bit of daylight filtering in through the not-quite-sealed window. Inside was a mess; a specially-made shackle was fastened to his wrist—only one,… Continue reading Cub 136: Who Would Like Such a Half-Grown Cub Anyway [Loudly]
